  ENZO The Amato Family - Book Two by Abrianna Denae Release Date: September 10, 2025 Review Oh geez, this had me tearing up repeatedly. Enzo’s spiral after his injury was understandable and shattering.  His entire identity is his job - who is he without it? But it’s not just he who went through something traumatic.

  A FURRY THING CALLED LOVE Friends of Gaynor Beach Animal Rescue - Book Seven by Abrianna Denae Release Date: August 26, 2025 Review Just a really sweet second-chance romance full of adorable furry friends. It was a summer fling that broke both their hearts.  Now Arlo is back, and though it might not be smart to become friends, they can’t seem to stay away. They are both really great guys; no one was the bad guy, no one needed to change who they were, they just needed to trust that the second time could last, and time. Time to build a friendship. There’s also a great family component to it, with some fun cameos. P.S. - Rodey the Parrot needs his own book, or maybe a serial newsletter feature; he’s hilarious.

Three years after leaving the only place he’s ever felt himself, Arlo moves back to Gaynor Beach, California, and this time it's permanent. After a hellish few years of trying to pretend he didn’t le...

  CONSEQUENCES Crimson Bonds - Book Four by Abrianna Denae & Leigh Kenzie Release Date: August 7, 2025 Review An amazing series - but also the most anxiety-inducing one I’ve ever read.  The chase to find the bosses and figure out who’s after them, the shifting loyalties, broken hearts, new loves - all of it twisting and spiralling, and you get so many different perspectives, meaning you feel everyone’s emotions.  Seriously, I need a drink to even open each book! And I still don’t know how I feel about the blending of the two families - I mean, I love that they are finding their people (all over the place), but then I worry about the families losing themselves, but also, I want to see them all in one big cuddle pile. I’m super curious to see how Abrianna and Leigh sort it all out at the end. Though I feel like I need them to slip me a spoiler before I completely spiral.
